Installing on Linux¶

Selecting the DataWay Gateway Address¶

DataWay is the data gateway for Guance. All data collected by the collector and reported to Guance must pass through the DataWay gateway.

Installation Command¶

DK_DATAWAY="https://openway.guance.com?token=tkn_7f5********fda8681" bash -c "$(curl -L https://static.guance.com/datakit/install.sh)"

During the installation phase, you can define certain DataKit configurations by adding environment variables to the installation command. Separate multiple environment variables with a space.
